We went to a place called Peddler's Village in Buck's County yesterday with friends from down the hill. It was a fun day to be in an pedestrian, artisan village with a mini-Christmas parade and hot cider and breath hanging in a cloud over our heads whenever we stepped outside. Back at home, with an evening and no big plans, we listened to Prairie Home and put up the tree. Then we read and put on Mark Knopfler and Emmylou Harris and enjoyed a seasonal beverage. That's what the loft is for!
It snowed overnight, but that didn't prevent us from doing some errands today. We also made a massive amount of soup stock from the T-givings carcass, had quesadillas for dinner, and both did some work. And, while we were eating dinner, Michigan got a New Year's Day bowl bid... thanks, Mizzou and WVU! It's just what we've always wanted.
